State Rep. Duey Stroebel has released a new ad attacking his 6th CD GOP primary opponents as people who might “compromise” on conservative principles in Congress.

The 30-second TV ad begins with video of state Sen. Glenn Grothman of Campbellsport during a candidate forum referencing a “bad mandate.” He adds that in Madison one is sometimes forced into taking a compromise vote. The ad then features a voiceover saying that Grothman’s compromise cost Wisconsin $788 million, referring to votes that created the state's renewable energy portfolio standards.

The ad repeats Grothman’s comments one more time before ending the ad with a voice over: “If career politicians Glenn Grothman and Joe Leibham are willing to compromise on conservative principles in Madison, what will they compromise on in Washington?”
